•Face recognition in the Family First mode may be slower than in the Normal mode because the camera needs time to determine whether the faces in the image are the same as the recorded faces. Also, compared with the Normal mode, the Family First mode will not be able to recognize faces that are far away and small.
•If the camera is unable to find a face when you press the shutter button, it will focus on the center of the screen.
•Always make sure that Auto Focus (AF) is selected as the focus mode when shooting with face recognition. Use of no other focus mode is supported.
•When shooting with the camera held sideways (for a portrait orientation shot), face recognition may take more time when shooting with the camera held normally (landscape orientation).
